How We Work

Specialized Interpretation and Translation to fit Your Needs

Interpretation is a complex, demanding task that requires an excellent command of languages, observational skills and knowledge of the subject matter being interpreted. SpeakEasy Services specializes in legal, medical, and business interpreting assignments including depositions, judicial proceedings, trials, examinations, hearings, consultations, independent medical exams, arbitrations and mediations. Our interpreters’ duty is to place non-English speaking witnesses on an equal footing with those who understand/speak English. Every detail of information contained in the original statement is repeated as close to verbatim as syntax and grammar will allow.

Our team of interpreters and translators are available for a variety of legal practice areas, including:

Personal Injury

Medical Malpractice

Product Liability

Immigration Law

Matrimonial Law

Criminal Law

Civil Court Proceedings

Consecutive and Simultaneous Interpretation

Consecutive Interpretation is appropriate for business meetings, investigative interviews, and court proceedings. No equipment is required; the interpreter passes information between the two parties. The interpreter waits for one party to finish speaking before interpreting for the other party. Consecutive interpretation gives participants the opportunity to focus on the language they understand without having to decipher different language sounds at once, making communication more efficient.

Simultaneous Interpretation is the process of interpreting from one language to another while the sender of the message is speaking, instead of waiting for the sender to finish. It requires the interpreter to listen, analyze, comprehend, convert, edit, and reproduce in real time from the source language to the target language while a speaker continues to speak in a specific social context.
